NCAA Division I is the highest level and student athletes can receive an athletic/hockey scholarship. The players tend to come from the best Junior leagues in North America and Europe.

NCAA Division III is also a very high level of hockey. The main difference between Division 1 and Division III is that you can only receive an academic/international scholarship. However, that usually makes up for a very good financial package.

ACHA College Hockey is what is commonly known as  “Club Hockey” (there are three levels: ACHA D1, D2, and D3). Club Hockey is a very good level of hockey, and often times a very good option for players who are not drawn to NCAA College Hockey.
